General-purpose easy to build plug-in vaporizer, with good temperature stabilization and balloons for the collection of vapours.
Works up to 260°C / 500°F, with a precision of 1°C / 2°F temperature step.
Check the vaporization of trichomes as seen under a microscope in the last part of the guide.
To be verified: is this working also with Salvia? Probably, as it reaches higher T than normal vaporizers, which are occasionally reported to work with La Pastora.
18th Dec 2012: added warning on possible health effects of the materials used in the heat gun, for people particularly concerned. However, I am inclined to minimize the relevance of this problem, as Ni-Cr heating elements are usually built into heat guns, hair driers, e-cigarettes, air heaters, …

This is a vegetbale sample sample going into vaporiser! Lol!
where can I buy the machine at?
Very detailed. I loved the video!
It would be interesting to know the experiences of medical cannabis users with vaporizers. CBD boils at higher T than THC (about 20°C/36°F higher) so being able to set a higher T may enhance the inhaled CBT:THC ratio and improve the medical effect, or even allow a reduction of the high (THC) for people who may need/want to stay clear-headed
I’m totally going to build this fucking thing! Will update when done 🙂
You could also eat the herb afterwards since the remaining thc would have been activated by then.
I had the same Idea, I made it with a Toolcraft SMD Rework Station, the vaporizing chamber I built out of two steelpipes, I can stick together. After the vaporizing chamber the steam flows into a bong, the balloon gets stuck on the open hole for the chillum. It works great, but I never would build it with silicone.
Decent vaporiser that. I’ll stick with the volcano but I’ll still give you a like
i use this, direct the heater in a glass bong,
and its works really well…yeah!
Are you still using the workflow station vaporiser & are you still alive in 2017?
That’s definitely very innovative, nice work, the only concern I had was the possible health risks of the heating element, however I guess if you got the workstation new one & ran it on the highest temperature for a 1/2 hour that should burn off any oils/toxins from manufacturing. If the temperature control is accurate & stable then I imaging it would work great, however you want to vape herbs (medical cannabis) at around 350 degrees F, there was A LOT OF RESIN left in that vaped bud, just FYI.
Having trouble finding a similar bowl that ships to US.
Any help would be appreciated!!
Great video and info!
Sweet vid thumbs up
OMG you are the boss!
that was some great info
i said its vapor not smoke so its ok to toke. sing along……
good job! I like your MacGyver volcano. lolNow just grind your material and turn the heat up a bit and you really will have some vapes
i think if you ground it you would get more even airflow and vaping of the buds
This may be the besteht design i’ve See so far. Great work! I’m thinking about building Thatcher one.
Great idea and design, cheers
Hi WillC,yes, a few min heating and the burning smell went the first time I used it.T can be set quite high,so you burn 100% of the production oils.Some ppl think the Cr&Ni in the heater can be a health risk too. I don’t know,many ppl have differing ideas.Ceramic heaters may be dangerous too,due to microcracks releasing particles. Ni&Cr are present also in e-cigs. We’ll know more soon thanks to their widespread use.Resin is left’cause I vaped only 1-2mins at low T:the vapor is smoother this way!
Thanks for the info!
no talking? thumbs down
